ISAAC s. KALLOCU,


H...| GeNSeus
Isaac S. Kalloch, ex.Mayor Of San Fran.
c'eco. who died recently at his residence,
New Wha!com, Washington Territory,
attained suddsn prominence on August
20. 1879, when he wan sho! by Charles De
Young, the editor and one OF the proprie.
tors Of the San Francisco Chronicle, Ksl.
loeb was ct tho time the Labor candidate
for Mayor, and was strongly opposed bv
De Young, who threatened that, unless he
withdrew from the contest, the Chronicle
would expoee his career as minister in
the East. kalloch responded by making
a speech, in which he slandered De-
Young's mother. The next morning De
Young met kalloch OIL the street and shot
him twice. KaIloch fell and Ds Young
attempted to drive away in bis car
riage, but wac attacked by party Of
trionds Of tho wounded man, who IN.
mercifully beat him and c police otlicer
who interfered. They would have killed
him had not other police otlicere came to
the rescue. He was taken to hotel, but
was removed for eafety to q police station,
which YVES soon surrounded by thousands
OF infuriated men, vowiug vengeance.
While they were being kept at bay twenty
thousand more workingnen gathered on
tho Sand Lots and cried for a leader to d.
rect an attack upon tho station house,
with q view to lynchiDg Do Young, and
subsequently upon tho Chronicle building.
Their leaders couneelled moderation, how.
ever, and message from kalloch to tho
same effect having been read to them, the
men dispersed.
Kalloch recovered and was elected
mayor. De Young was kept in coDGne.
ment Tor some time, and, being liberated
on bail, paid short visit: to Mexico. In
the spring OF 1850 an anonymous pamph.
lot was circulated in San Franciaco, de.
scribing discreditable events in Mayor
Kalloch's early career. It's author was
generally believed to be De- Young. On
the evening Of April %. 1880, the Rev. l.
NJ. Kalloch, q aon Of the mayor, aged 26,
entered the Chronicle office and shot De
Young fatally. Young Kalloch was at
once arrcsted, and in March of the year
following wss. tried, but acquitted Of the
charge OF murder. ssf
Isaac s. kslloch, OF whom we present a
fine portrait, was born in Rockland, Me-,
where his father wasa Clergyman, in 1882.
After wild career as a theological stu.
dent, during which he suffered expulsion,
but was reinstated out OF respect to his
aged lather, he entered the ministry at
Rockland, but was finally obliged to give
up bis church and leave the town on &C.
count Of scandalous charges. He aubse.
quently became the popular pastor Of the
Temple Society in Boston. There also his
habits interfered with his usefulness, and,
aftor trial in criminal court, hs escaped
conviction Of a felony OF the nominal or.
der, through the disagreement of the Jury.
Kalloch subsequently went to Kaneas
and would have resumed preaching there
had not his record beon oyerhauled.
This caused his departure for San Fran.
cisco, whore he joined the Koarney move.
ment, and became the standard bearer Of
the Sand Lots party.
